I'M AN INNOVATIVE DESIGNER AND DIGITAL ARTIST. Born curious and made creative — designing was never just a job, it’s how I see the world.
I'M AN INNOVATIVE DESIGNER AND DIGITAL ARTIST IN TOKYO. MY PASSION FOR MINIMALIST AESTHETICS, ELEGANT TYPOGRAPHY, AND INTUITIVE DESIGN SHINES THROUGH IN MY WORK.
I'M AN INNOVATIVE DESIGNER AND DIGITAL ARTIST IN TOKYO. MY PASSION FOR MINIMALIST AESTHETICS, ELEGANT TYPOGRAPHY, AND INTUITIVE DESIGN SHINES THROUGH IN MY WORK.

Before I ever opened Photoshop, I was the kid turning school projects into full productions—adding transitions to PowerPoints no one asked for and designing sculptures from cardboard just because it felt right. I grew up obsessed with how things looked, how they worked, and how to make them better. That obsession became a skillset, and that skillset turned into a purpose.


Now I channel all of that into designs that feel like they were made by someone actually cared. I believe creativity doesn’t start with a blank canvas; it starts with how you see the world. And I see it full of potential. When I’m not designing, I’m out riding my bike, walking with my girlfriend, or spoiling my guinea pigs with way too much lettuce. I paint 3D prints, play a lot of Hearthstone, and love conversations about the deeper layers of art and Black history. Those experiences shape how I think, and they’re a big part of why I design the way I do.

EXPERIENCE

Gilbreath Communications, Inc.

Creative Director

2022 - Present

Here at Gilbreath, I led creative work for mission-driven clients like the Houston Health Department, City of Houston, Shell, Texas Department of Agriculture, and the National Dairy Council. I helped shape everything from brand identities and public health campaigns to accessible websites and social content. Whether building a site from the ground up or designing print pieces for city-wide initiatives, I focused on clarity, purpose, and impact. I also worked closely with clients and internal teams to keep projects moving smoothly—and introduced new systems that made the creative process faster, sharper, and more collaborative.

Texas A&M Division of Information Technology

Junior Designer

AUG 2018 - 2020

With the Division of IT, I helped bring complex tech topics to life through clear, engaging design. I worked on university-wide campaigns—from cybersecurity awareness to DUO multi-factor authentication—using a mix of digital, video, and print media. My work contributed to a SIGUCCS award win for “Best Use of Social Media,” and I played a key role in modernizing legacy materials to match new brand standards. I also supported the annual System Technology Summit, designing everything from signage to swag, and regularly created content that translated IT speak into student-friendly messaging.
